Near Light

Alone in somewhere dark, nocive shadows lurk everywhere you go. Your only comfort is to stay Near Light. But beware, while it might protect you, it also exposes you!

Platform your way around this dark forest like place and use your Light to stun enemies and reveal hidden paths. Shadows don't like to be stunned and will hunt the light source.

If you like this game, please (PLEASE) leave a comment. It really helps me knowing if we should keep working on it. Thanks!

System requirements: You'll need a dedicated graphics card to play the game for now. It's a requirement of the lights engine. Else it'll run out of memory or throw the error "Could not create canvas". I'm already working on this issue. Sorry for the inconvenience.
